Facebook on Friday banned former US president Donald Trump
for two years, saying he deserved the maximum punishment for violating its
rules over a deadly attack by his supporters on the US Capitol.
“Given the gravity of the circumstances that led to Mr.
Trump’s suspension, we believe his actions constituted a severe violation of
our rules which merit the highest penalty available under the new enforcement
protocols,” Facebook vice president of global affairs Nick Clegg said in a
post.
Facebook also said it will no longer give politicians
blanket immunity for deceptive or abusive content at the social network based
on their comments being newsworthy.
